"Pros 1. Great selection 2. Half and half provides good balance for value for money 3. Super friendly staff 4. Good reputation 5. Family loved them 6. Open 24hrs Cons 1. Little pricey for the area We got the sampler pack of 6 large, premium donuts and 6 regular for $21. Premium were huge with some double the size of a regular donut. Selection was large and donuts were fresh and constantly being brought out. 12 Premium are about $24 and $18 for regular dozen Varieties included Regular -various cream filled with icing sugar, chocolate, or nothing -fruit filled including strawberry, raspberry, and I think lemon -buttermilk donut similar to a sour cream one -chocolate, maple, coconut topped -Cherry cake and other cake types Premium -giant apple fritter -giant cinnamon swirl -various long johns stuffed with white whipped filling sort of like marshmallow"

"I feel something poetic every time I come here. Not sure why. I think the preserved vibes from this place, the originals, the ambience, the overall mood from the staff… not to mention that if you are feeling sad, nothing like a Buckeye donut won’t resolve. Really. One of my favorite places to be, to see, to smell. May they have continued success!"

"I typically frequent the OSU campus location and have always had amazing food and great service, however today I decided to stop in at the S High St. location and had my best experience yet. I went through the drive-thru around 5:30am (7/3/2025) and the lady who served me was incredibly nice. Her customer service was top tier including adding sprinkles to a donut for me that doesn’t typically have sprinkles on it. I wish I had grabbed her name so I could mention it to management but my experience with her service was most definitely worth public acknowledgment. She made my day and set a perfect tone for a long drive ahead of me. Buckeye Donuts is always worth a stop, especially since they’re 24 hours. Make sure to try their breakfast sandwiches and apple fritters!"

"When I visited this location on Saturday, November 1, 2025, I was shocked to learn that it wasn’t owned or part of the “1998 N High ST Columbus, Ohio” location. Since this location was closer to me, I decided to drive there to buy some doughnuts. I was thoroughly lost for words at how this place was run. I’m someone who likes to scope out a place, and I blame it on my OCD. Lol. As I walked in, I noticed a woman sitting to my right playing a game. Their daughter was sitting on the counter, which was “very unsanitary.” A child was also sitting on the back station area next to what looked like a drinking or coffee dispenser, which was also “unsanitary.” The father, who was also an employee, was playing a game. Mind you, neither of the adults asked me if I needed help. They kept playing their game. The man in the work area had his pants sagging and his boxers exposed. After about two minutes, I asked if I could get some help. The woman told her husband, “You have a customer.” The man kept playing. After another minute, he came and asked me what I would like to order and he was that he was talking about his game. I said I had a gift card. The woman then said, “We don’t accept gift cards.” I asked if the restaurant was part of the Buckeye Donuts at “1998 N High ST.” He said, “Oh, no. We split from them years ago.” I asked if he was the owner. He said no. He was nice and gave me a free red velvet doughnut, which was kind of him. The reason I asked if he was the owner was because I was going to address him on how the restaurant looked, his appearance, his nails, and his children being in areas that they should not be in. I was also concerned about the back area where the doughnuts were cooked and prepared, which looked horrible. It looked like black mold was covering the fryer, and I would be afraid it would blow up if I worked there. The floor was not cleaned. I looked at the pictures other viewers had posted, and this day, I went and looked, and it didn’t look anything like those. I wonder if those positive reviews were from daytime visits and the day shift workers, or if the night shift and weekend workers have a different experience. Because what I saw, I will never visit this location again."

"The lady who waited on us was so incredibly friendly and helpful!! The bow tie and apple fritter are my favorite. The famous buckeye is good! Really good- but the simplicity of the bow tie blew me away- it was like a golden cloud of goodness. The Apple fritter is absolute perfect decadence! That perfect crisp, glaze on all the nooks and crannies and moist and soft inside !! I won't pass by on my way through town ever again! I sat to get in and out and lots of parking and a drive thru make it a fantastic location."
